A loan of $750 helps to buy bags of betel nuts and fruit leaves to sell.

Anna's story
From Honiara, Anna is 38 years old, married and the mother of five children. She runs a market stall where she sells a variety of items to her community. Since joining SPBD, she has steadily grown her business.
This loan will enable Anna to buy bags of betel nuts and fruit leaves [leaves from various fruit-bearing plants used in local cuisine] to sell and so attract more customers. This will increase her sales and provide additional support for her family, including improved living standards and better healthcare.
